Classic Stained Glass Color Combinations For Your Houston Home

Go Monochromatic: One great way to make a statement but not over do it is to use different shades of the same color. This is great when the room you are getting stained glass in is already done in a bright color scheme. Usually choosing a complimentary color to the room you are creating the window is the best way to go.

Go Neutral: This is a great option for rooms that face or frame a natural setting already. It goes with just about any color palette you may already have in your home.

Go Beveled: If the room you would like to put the custom stained glass window in, is already pretty busy and bright, using clear glass with plenty of levels to bend the light, is a breathtaking way to harness the power of refracted light beautifully, while keeping the window from clashing in any way.

Go Bold: Using many bright and varied colors is a great way to use stained glass, as vivid colors are one of stained glasses best attributes. In rooms or hallways that are light or white, using many bold colors is perfectly acceptable and allows you to use the stained glass to it’s fullest potential
